Metaphor is Gamespot GOTY 2024! Congrats!https://youtu.be/zeU7NoJTHPQ?si=Lt8SAG_BTa3azBN6
Do people still think it's not winning at TGAs tomorrow?
>>696941482>women is speakingNope not listening
BARRYGODS
>>696941482OHNONONONONONONO
are you chucklefucks really going to celebrate this when the sole reason its winning are the leftist pandering politics
>>696941482PogBut did I miss the awards? I was busy putting up my tree last night
>>696941585It's still behind Astrobot.
>>696941875He's right though. Get ready for Persona 6 to ditch heterosexual romance too, for being "male gaze-y" and "problematic".
>>696942072>get ready for Persona 6 to drop the boring social link calendar system and focus solely on dungeonsPLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE
>>696942072I don't think it will but it will have fag romance options 10000%
>>696942220>akshually removing content for straight males is based YAAAASSSSI'm not surprised you think that, faggot.
CRINGE THEY ARE ONLY GIVING IT GOTY DUE TO THE POLITICS
>>696941482Chuds eternally btfo
>>696941721It's insane how funny these pics are to me, I don't even care about board schizo culture

>>696941814no since according to lefty/v/ Metaphor is akshully not woke
Anime weeb shit getting goty is ridiculous. Shows you how childish and uncultured games journalists are when they find the story/writing in a game like this good.
>>696941814Rebirth went and filled all of Midgard with black people, even the damn indigenous villa is full of blacks for that sweet representation check, but it seems it was for naught. All it needed was for Metaphor to come with the magic word "equity" and all journos flocked to it, forgetting Rebirth ever existed.
>>696942863>Rebirth went and filled all of Midgard with black people
>>696942684JRPGs and games with anime aesthetic have been snubbed and ignored by the goy awards since forever.
>>696941814>leftistFamously leftist game Metaphor telling people marxism is a fucking retarded idea
We all know this only wins goty due to the politics and not the gameplay.
>We all know this only wins goty due to the politics and not the gameplay.
>>696942072I wish.I wanna see waifufags meltdown
>>696941482Pajeets and sandniggers already seething.
Its absolutely over for Larry
>>696941482Total Metaphor Victory
>>696941721What does this have to do with FF15 schizo? He just hates all RPGs that aren't FF15.
>>696942072>Get ready for Persona 6 to ditch heterosexual romance tooYou didn't play Metaphor. It literally has a canon heterosexual romance.
>>696941482Bros, the JRPG genre peaked here. How can God Atlus go further with Persona 6?
>>696945049P-studio is the zoomer team since all the oldbloods went and made Studio Zero, and theyve made P3R and P5R 3rd sem so Im skeptical
>>696945049Bring Hashino back to their team
anime weeb shit winning goty is embarrassing.
>>696946012Maybe you western tards should learn to make good games? Not a single american games for GOTY nominee and this is an american showfucking lmao
>>696941814election's over fuck off back to your containment board already
>>696944563>eupha>canonJunah has just as much romance teasing as she does, Caterina get me some too
Based
>>696941814You have been bamboozled by no more than two out of context screenshots yah dummy
>>696941482
>>696942072Metaphor may be like Persona, but it's not Persona and not having romances in this one doesn't mean anything for P6.
>>696946738Soul Hackers 2 is the only recent stain on their output.
>>696941482Never ask a metaphor fan for specific moments or scenes that makes them say “the characters are so good/ the world building is good”They dont remember anything about it
>>696941482Well deserved
>>696941482>me just started this game>already harassed by " diversity is good"wtf
How come astrobot, rebirth nor balatro fans made a thread about some outlet saying it's goty?
>>696949968Metaphor fans are just that insecure
>>696949968what website?
>>696941482>MidaphorOh yeah... that happened
>>696949968>How come astrobot, rebirth nor balatro fansOh yeah some no name publication from huehuehue said Astro Bot was GOTY definitely means something
>>696949968Its even worse than thatIts always threads about either “look, metaphor was chosen” or “look ffvii rebirth wasnt chosen”Its clear it is just a fatlus fan
>>696949106You're a dumbass who missed entire louis threads. Maybe (you) didnt play the game if you thought thishttps://youtu.be/CIyIk1C1QOc?si=SrtYPROL3XHRlW2c
>>696950542>gets saved by two deus ex machinas in a rowKINOOOOOOOO WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW WOAHHHHHHH WOAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
>>696949042I thought SH2 was actually OK. The dungeons were boring, but I thought the characters and combat were more than fine
>>696950542I played the game. Nothing of it is memorable. Well, maybe a couple of moments, but thats it
>>696950661>deus ex machinaHe already knew your plan by the time you beat Zorba in Grand Trad. The second time you fight him, he absorbs too much melancholia becauae of his might is right philosophy, proving him wrong by irony because he isnt qualified to live in his proposed world.
>>696950740What are those moments?
>>696950852>He already knew your planHe didn't expect to get impaled with the spear and admits he survived through sheer luck. You didnt play your game. Metaphor sucks ass
>>696949968rebirthfags have been calling it GOTY by default since january
>>696949968Well, Gamespot actually gets traffic for a start. (Astro Bot is also very good)
>>696950985Hello speedreader, he didnt expect you to put up a fight, not that he would die there. He was already talking with Zorba before Altabury. He himself said if he died he wouldnt be fit for his ambitions anyway. Maybe reading isnt for you
>>696951146Hey dumbfuck retard, again, Louis admits that he didn't expect the spear to impale him and that he survived the chandelier fall through pure happenstance. Do you understand this now? Do you want me to communicate in ungas and bungas, is that more your speed? Now stop wasting server bandwidth.
>>696951146>he didnt expect you to put up a fight, not that he would die therewat
>>696951286>admits that he didnt expectPost the dialogue where he says this. Zorba was LITERALLY THERE to get his body, what the fuck do you mean he didnt expect anything to happen to him?
>>696950983The airship revealLouis dyingHulkenberg crying and apologizing to the princeThe prince coming and the revealYou know, the moments that actually has feelings and production.They couldnt even add a scene of the airship flying across the magla storm to hype up things
>>696951434You troglodyte. You cretin. You imbecile. You scumfuck bastard.
>>696951727Thats him gloating, dumbass. He's saying you shouldve tried harder
>>696951727>tactical Genius>gets himself stabbed>survives by luckKEK
>>696951847
Well done
>>696941482This is only getting praised because journos are "allowed" to like Persona games.I avoided this game and from what I heard of the story, it's what you'd expect. Atlus tries to tackle "heavy" themes but they are shit at writing so everything is a caricature. I feel like Persona 4 came out fine because they kept everything to a set location and a set cast of characters. They tried to expand the scope with P5 and this and it just comes off childish.Also, it's a game about becoming a king and you can't romance anyone. No one players Persona for the combat.
>>696951847No he isn't "gloating" retard (Louis isn't even the type to gloat to begin with), he is stating this as a matter of fact. See the thing Zorba says right afterwards - it was purely by chance ("fate") that Louis didn't just fucking die. You're simply wrong but I have no doubt you're just going to doubledown even harder. That's the type you are.
>>696952079>posts a reaction image from a game critics also lovedCope
>>696941482>Communist enabler game gains journo circlejerk award from Literal Communist journo websiteAnd the Sky is Blue
>>696952113>Louis isn't even the type to gloat to begin withFirst thing he does when the king dies is to arrive in the funeral aboard his airship, float down like an angel sent by god himself with royal flowers tantamount to proclaiming himself king and saying the king is dead and he deserved it>by chanceIts not by chance if he already had contingencies set up with Zorba anon. Just because the MC missed the heart doesnt mean he didnt plan for it. You impaled him, too bad it didnt kill him, you shouldve tried harder.
>>696952113I'm not sure why this is even a discussion that needs to be had. He just blatantly did not expect Eupha to call back the spear. https://youtu.be/1hTdM7JmDcU?si=ze61RQe-lgxp_jpL&t=2440
>>696952437>Post the dialogue where he says this>"A fine blow... you've surprised me."41:00 in the video I just posted.
>>696951974She's hot desu
>>696952185Ahh yes, the "communist enabler game" which literally endorses hereditary monarchy...
>>696942430>Metaphor is also perhaps the most earnest and compassionate game from its developer, with a focus on injustice, reparations, and compassionEpic
>>696954883Ya seethe?
>>696953854Just as the soviet union
>>696954936I didn't play it (not personally interested in turn-based JRPG's). Just it makes the people denying that journo's aren't glazing this game because of leftist politics look kinda stupid when they outright say so in their reviews/articles
>>696955082Just because a journalist insists a piece of media conforms exactly to their views doesn't make them 100% right.
>>696942037how do you even know?
>>696941482SE BTFO. time jannies and pseudo sequels can fuck off
WE WON
>>696952079>I didn't play this game but here's why it's bad
>>696946236Silent Hill 2 remake is my goty. Thats a respectable game with good writing and no anime weeb cringe.
>>696955940Silent Hill is literally a Japanese series anon.
>>696955969I know. I'm saying its not anime weeb cringe like Metaphor. Its a respectable normal game.
>>696941482>/v/ is seething that a brand new IP turn-based JRPG is winning GOTY awards in 2024
HULK
>>696955558>>696956239Objectively worst girl.
>>696955940You're so cool, anti-weeb anon. Look how dull and closed minded you are.
>>696941814Characters are constantly criticizing each other's ideas in a game about fantasy politics in a world where they make sense, game journalists and /v/ are too dumb to not relate it to real world bullshit
>>696955312Because you can go look it up yourself or just look at >>696949968.Like, 7 or 8 juror sites posted articles about their GotY ahead of TGA and half of them gave it to Astrobot. One to Metaphor, One to Helldivers 2 (not at TGA's so it doesn't really count), and One to Final Fantasy 7.
>>696956167I'm surprised /v/ cares about this stuff, I thought the consensus here was that journos opinions weren't valid
>>696941482>FFVII loses its home turf to a trashy atlus jrpgkek never thought id see the day. I remember the seething when cloud lost to L block like it was yesterday
>>696956369Eupha is best but Hulk is great
Wukong is gonna win goty. You think Geoff will make all the chinks watching from billibilli sad? No way.
>Japanese dustborn is goty for faggot game urinalists.Shocking, I know.
>>696957046That would be embarrassing. Literally everybody would know it's rigged. Wukong has a Metacritic average somewhere in the 80s.
>>696956657>8 sites out of 134Wow...it's fucking nothing
>>696957169>Literally everybody would know it's rigged.Everyone knew this already, were you not around when TloU2 won?
This game's a fucking Emperor's Clothes situation. Nobody actually enjoys playing it, but they think they should.
>>696957318>what are trendslmao, if it does win don't seethe too badly.
>>696957420TLOU2 had high critic scores, Wukong doesn't even have that.
>>696957046It already won in my eyes
>>696949968Link?
>>696942072waifufags would seethe so that's good. lol
>>696957481I need to lick her little cunny
>>696955558
>>696957495>trends>the outlets choosing Astro are literal who sites that probably didn't play anything else that year>The other outlets had it near or outside their top 10
My wives won
I will be here for the mass seething tomorrow night
>>696956167some 2016 tourists and pajeets are seething because of a game that doesn't perfectly align with their nonsense politics or losing their jobs as shills for other jap games, I just don't really care
>>696957961>renown mattering in a contest where the nominee with the most votes wins>trends have no precedent at allYou could have 800 literally who's, if they all for vote one game instead of metaphor it wouldn't magically lose because "more people use gamespot"Like I said, it metaphor doesn't win don't get too mad. It's already trailing behind other nominees.
>>696958173
>>696958248Honestly I'm cheering for Metaphor to win but I wouldn't mind if Astro Bot or FF7 Rebirth won, both are excellent games too.Any of the other games winning would be a joke though. Especially the Normie Ring DLC.
>>696958248>You could have 800 literally who's, if they all for vote one game instead of metaphor it wouldn't magically lose because "more people use gamespot"Just pointing out that 4 out of 134 sites choosing Astro Bot doesn't mean anything especially since it's not leading the pack as hard as previous winners did and it doesn't say anything for trends since the sites that voted for it aren't popular or widely read.>Like I said, it metaphor doesn't win don't get too mad.Why? I don't expect it to win because it's a JRPG
>>696958347What about monkey game?
>>696958248Why do you assume that those outlets will vote for Astro Bot to begin with especially when among those sites are niche ones that only cover RPGs or Japanese only games?
>>696957659I'm still waiting for a sale.
>>696958704I said earlier >>696957169 that'd be the most laughable result. Has any game before won GOTY while having a Metacritic average in the 80s?
>>696958704Nta but monkey game was the only actual option on that list that wasn't astroturfed as fuck (elden ring dlc shouldn't be in the list at all its dlc)
>>696941482>worse atlus game winning gotythat would a terrible outcome
>>696958856In the low 80's? Nope.
I finished the game and don't see what's so special about it. It's Persona but with a worse gameplay loop, far worse dungeons from 5 and that's it really.
>>696958903Wrong, it's blatantly the most astroturfed option. There are plenty of games this year that reviewed better than it. Silent Hill 2 has a higher Metacritic score, why not nominate that? "It's a remake" isn't an argument considering Resident Evil 4 Remake got nominated for GOTY last year.Wukong is there to appease the Chinese audience, nothing more, I just hope they aren't so deluded as to think they can get away with awarding it GOTY without everybody realising what they're doing.
>>696958905>worse atlus game winning gotyBut SMTV and SH2 didn't win anything except scorn from fans
>>696958619>especially since it's not leading the pack as hard as previous winners didFunny you should say that, BG3 had a similar amount of votes and was ahead by a similar number last year around the 10th-12th.
the gameplay is shit though, games 30 years ago had better gameplay
>>696958856Prety sure the only 80 something game that ever won was dragon age and that was one of the first years, everything since has been 90+.
>>696959106What about Persona 3 Reload?
>>696959029P5 was like 50% time wasting filler and the combat was braindead even on the highest difficulty. Just those alone put it far below Metaphor.
>>696942072I can't be the only person who found it refreshing that there was no dating sim shit in this game. Baldur's Gate 3 was just obnoxiously horny and I got sick of rejecting everyone who wanted to climb on my dick.
>>696941482I really enjoyed my time with it, I was high as fuck during the 70 hours I invested in this and it was a trip, despite its flaws, it had some very interesting ideas, and music was great.I still had more fun with Rebirth, I also had more fun with Rise of Ronin, I think.
>>696958903Are you fucking joking? It's the most astroturfed game of the year, you have chinks screeching about how everyone loves it then it turned out that they're basically the only ones that bought the game.
>>696959175Dragon Age was in the 90's at that time, it just fell over the years.
>>696959112>BG3 had a similar amount of votesNo it didn't you fucking liar it had a huge lead over everything that came out that year even at this stage that's why people knew it would win.
>>696959205FESfag....
>>696957982bro what the fuck? I thought Hulkenberg had a flat butt, what is this cake?
>>696959453Yeah it was painfully obvious BG3 would win from pretty much the day it released. The praise that game got was simply unstoppable. It got to the point where it was honestly over-the-top, people saying it was "the best game of all time" etc.I don't feel like there's a game like that this year, so the possibilities feel a lot more open.
>>696941814huh yes? Like with the bg3 dick sucking /v/ will suck this dei garbage>1mb4h its le out of context
>>696959597That all stemmed out of /pol/ refugees genuinely trying to make a media scandal over the "bear sex" joke, from that point onwards it was inevitable that half the board would circlejerk over BG3 just to trigger the other half who hated it.I don't feel the same rage around Metaphor, there's a small cabal of weird autists who turn up to every thread to call it "woke", but no larger controversy.
>>696959112>BG3 had a similar amount of votesLmao.
>>696959525One little mod fixes the entire game
>>696959979Must have been removed from Nexus.
Sex with Maria
>>696959430Ah, well in that case it's entirely unheard of for such a low scored game to win it.
>>696959562The best thing I can say about this line up is that every game has a chance one way or another (yes even Wukong) but people are in serious denial to think that any game from last year had a chance against BG3 since it's biggest competition was a fucking expansion pack that got less than half amount of the awards it got followed by Alan Wake which got a 1/3 of it.
>>696960020The good ones are on Gamebanana
>>696959453BG3 literally only had around 11 total votes before TGA you fucking dumbass. And only 2 or 3 of them were from TGA journalists. You can go see this online you know. Stop being retarded for five seconds.
>>696960196is there one that makes the baghead chick white?
>>69696034011 is more than 4 you fucking retard and most of those weren't from the jury. Astro doesn't have a crazy lead like BG3 infact it's literally running neck and neck with Wukong and Balatro
>>696960367No but my penis likes that particular kind of islander brown
>>696960471You stupid mother fucker, around 11 total votes on that website, only 2 of which were from TGA panels in comparison to Astrobot's 8 and 4. Learn how to read you seething ESL.
>>696941585idk china always likes to be numba 1 so they might've dished out money for wukong
>>696960603>around 11 total votes on that website, only 2 of which were from TGAThat's literally what I said dumbass
>>696960767>11 is more than 4No it's not you fucking retard, you compared 11 total global site votes to 4 TGA votes and not Astrobot's 8 global votes (8 isn't that much lower than 11, you're acting like it's 8 vs 110) when in reality BG3 only had 2 TGA votes at that same period of time and I even posted an image to prove it yet you ignored it anyway because apparently Metaphor having the slightest chance of not winning is making you have an aneurism. Seriously, shut the fuck up and take your meds.
It's so fucking good bros...
>>696961917Metaphor is terrible it feels like one of those on rails nu-Pokemon games
y he brown?
>>696962313He's not that brown. Eupha has a darker skintone than him.
>>696962368Actual Indian argument.
>>696962462I'm just saying, Will's skintone is closest to a southern European like a Spaniard or Italian. It's nowhere near being proper brown like Pajeets.
>>696962313He's one of the 2 brown races in the game, and has to prove to everyone that he's not a barbaric nigger
Why is he brown when this is his dad? And why is Louis white, with blonde hair and blue eyes?
>>696941482Gamespot is shit. They're the same corrupted assholes that only give scores for ideology instead of merrit.
>>696962606Elda aren't brown. In the Sanctum you see plenty of Elda that are pasty white as fuck.
>>696941814Racism is bad. Deal with it
>>696962702Judging by how pasty More/Hythlodaeus is, Will's mom was probably much darker, basically black. I don't think we ever see a rendition of her ingame though.
>>696962847Inherent racial differences are real too, and the game points this out
>>696955558>show literally zero sign of attraction to MC the whole game, totally formal>except when she gets charmedHow sexually repressed is Hulkenberg
>>696962847
>>696962873I think near the very end of the game you can see the stained glass window inside of Academia and it shows what is probably Will's mom and she had the same shade of brown skin that he has. I think Elda genes just overwrite everything else which is why Will had no Clemar traits.
Refantazio combat wasn't great desu
>>696951913Luck is literally the most valuable quality in the world. Talent cannot defeat Fate.
>>696963061It's fucking trash. Romancing Saga and Fantazian put it to shame.
>pedophiles are defending gamespot
>>696963180I really loved all the status ailments that would never ever inflict themselves. Whoever made that decision should be launched into the sun
>>696941482Metaphor is the greatest RPG of all timeIt's crazy seeing people seethe at this basic truth
>>696941482>Gamespotlmao
>>696963180Funny how these two games look like fucking trash, but only Metaphor got demolished here about the graphics.
>>696955558>>696956239meanwhile, in game

>>696964260>Everyone KNEW the woke game would win though, there was NO doubtyeah wukong or stellar blade should be the winners this year but that won't happeninstead they will give it to this garbage or veilguard 100%, even elden ring has more chances despite being a dlc

>>696965370>veilguardLMAO
>>696941482I just finished the first dungeon and killed the giant egg monster and now I'm shitposting on /v/ instead of playing because I'm kind of meh about it all.
>>696942684All of these games are fine with the writing up until the last 10% of the game, then shit goes off the rails and nothing is ever explained or really makes any sense. Persona, for example:>people are sad, and that sadness became this monster. >shut up, don't ask questions>just roll with itThey don't even try to explain how emotions turned into a tangible god-powered monster. "It just happened bro" is apparently fine in Japan.
>>696963782Meanwhile, the only good girl
>>696941482great gamei'm happy that jrpg won
>>696967217The second one is the best part of the game, it's all downhill afterwards. If you don't like the game then unironically just drop it.
>>696967846False, the fourth dungeon is the best.
>>696967931Dragon temple? The etrian callback was good and it introduced the best girl but imo it was the most boring one.
>>696959082SH2 is also divisive. You would have purists upset. Metaphor isnt at all divisive, people who call it leftist havent played the game, its from a beloved JRPG developer who's made its name over the years and the only slight against it is that its "muh anime weebshit," ehich falls apart because the goy awards always snub JRPGs
>>696941482>Gamespot
